Seniors are Showing up for Shooting Lessons

Are you living an active retirement? Most of my retired clients tell me they have never been busier.  That’s why it came as no surprise to me to read this article in the WSJ about the increase in seniors learning how to shoot. And it’s not just seniors.

I reached out to a client whose family runs a highly successful gun shop, range and training center in the South. I wanted to get his take on the article. He said it’s not just seniors who are interested, training is up overall, and has grown markedly over the past 18 months. Here are the five most popular classes he mentioned, in no particular order:

  • NRA First Steps
  • Evolution of Accuracy
  • Fast and Accurate
  • Concealed Carry
  • Private lessons
